>BAE Systems, the maker of the UK’s Navy ships and warplanes, has signed a deal paving the way to building British-designed light artillery in Ukraine.
>The FTSE 100 defence giant has agreed to set up a legal entity in the country following a meeting between chief Charles Woodburn and Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky in Kyiv earlier this week.
>Mr Woodburn said the agreement “paves the way for us to work together to provide more direct support to the Ukrainian armed forces,” in a sign that BAE plans to explore local manufacturing and direct deals with the Ukrainian army.
>An early target for local manufacturer is understood to be the L119 howitzers. They are designed to be light enough to be towed by a large truck or even lifted by helicopter.

Reminds me a bit of false perspective shots of Gandalf sitting at the table with Bilbo tbh
>Rheinmetall, BAE Systems, SAAB, and Bofors all setting up factories in Ukraine
Ukraine going from being the breadbasket of Europe to being the arsenal of Europe.
Why not both, anon?
This is the way. Ukraine can be a military, tech and agricultural powerhouse of Europe. Imagine applying Dutch farming knowledge to Ukrainian land.
Also makes sense and why it did the same during CCCP. Big population center with plenty wagies, large industrialized territories ( power, rail, no environment concerns ), centered location, plenty local resources, decent all season weather and geography ( sea, land, desert, mountains ).
Like, you can't really test missiles in (insert small developed central european country), where they'd cross border during ascent phase and then you'd get shut down because factory smelled of chemicals a little.
Minefields and foamed up Russians in the fields not rotting properly.
>Minefields
Send Russoids into the field to clear 'em out
>Foaming Russians
Flamethrower.
What if they run out of money?
Every single politician Putin could pay for (and many who he couldn't afford, but simply feel threatened by the prospect of unified Europe investigating their finances in the future) are campaigning on "we should immediately stop aiding Ukraine and start appeasing Putin".
>he still thinks voting matters
>the 11th richest guy in the room can buy off the political classes of Germany, UK, France and Italy.
Russia would run out of money trying to out-lobby Lockheed, let alone the combined redevelopment intentions of the UN.
My bro the Italian Mafia has more money than the entirety of the Russian state department. Europe has ungodly amounts of cash.
I don't care about this stupid war, but what a manlet jesus

heelZ Zizterz its ogre
I don't know why, but this photo reminds me of the shamwow guy.
I think I'm having a stroke
Huh, that's weird, I thought both NATO and Ukraine had run out of steam and the West was about to abandon Ukraine and have Zelenskyy retire to California or something. Were all those Indians lying? I mean, if you can't trust a man covered in shit...

>breaking news
>BAE creates more better explosive weapons which will be used to kill children
What else is new today
>muh donbabwe children

Children are merely an unfortunate byproduct of sex, anyway
They're only a byproduct of heterosexual sex, so the Russoids don't really have much to worry about.

Who's the one killing all of those white Ukrainians, again?
yay everything's all an act to bring about 2030!!!!!!!!!!!!!
werent those articles fake?
Probably, russia duplicated a ton of sites to spread fake news through last year, heres meta’s comments https://therecord.media/meta-takes-down-hundreds-of-fake-accounts-linked-to-china-and-russia
“ The fake websites were built with particular care, according to Meta. Some of them mimicked the exact appearance of real news sites and even used their cookie acceptance page.
The content, however, was different. Fake websites published articles portraying the Ukrainian government and armed forces as criminal and corrupt, and Russia as the victim of Western aggression.”
Yes, like most zigger shit
luv me wheat
luv me cured fatback
luv me guns
'ate the moskals
simple as
Holy shit he's tiny.
So this big move is…105mm guns? Are they joking? Is it a factor of having the industrial capacity for only this much? Or are they trying to structure a light infantry unit and give it some sort of fire support not a small mortar?
ITT is needed another reminder
>Zelensky is 170cm and doesn't hide it, even when meeting 190cm and above western europeans
>Putin is 170cm with platform shoes, 160cm without and is extremely butthurt about it
